and aromatic enrichment thin and volatile oils like balsam oil of turpentine or orange oil. Used only pure they are not suitable for the finish of wood. Then there are non-hardening vegetable oils, like Camellia oil. They can be used as polishing oil or antirust agents for metals, they are not very suitable for long-lasting wood preservation. Vegetable oils can be mixed in order to achieve specific characteristics. Drying Accelerator Drying accelerators, also called siccatives, are added to most of the purchasable oil mixes in order to reduce the drying time. The catalytic effect is created by metal joints (cobalt, heavy metals oxides). This way the oil is no longer environmentally friendly. Besides the penetration is reduced by shortening the drying time and thus the long-lasting protection. Therefore we recommend to not add any siccatives. Surface You can oil all natural finished, grinded or polished and dry wooden surfaces. Best suitable with a grit of 180 220 and a wood moisture of less than 12. Open-pored woods like rosewood and wenge should first be treated with grain fillers. Layer composition It is vital to first apply the soft and then the harder part, e.g. first shellak ground then oil and finally wax. If it is necessary to apply several oil layers the first application should be reduced. The following layers should only be applied once the previous one has tried and the finish has been done. Mineral and animal oils In addition to the vegetable oils mineral oil derivates are also used as wood preservation, e.g. paraffin oil, which are usually the basis of many hard oils. Several culture groups traditionally used animal oils, like fish oil. These oils will not be considered in this brochure. Security advice All curing oils can heat up during polymerisation. If the cloth is still wet or oil-soaked a risk of spontaneous ignition is likely! Please store in closed containers or under water. 3
Linseed Oil
Derivation Linseed oil is made out of the seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissiFlax seed mum), cold- or warm-pressed or by extraction. It is sold in different forms: pure, as stand oil (heated), preoxidized, as varnish, bleached or resinated with drying accelerators. The Swedish linseed oils we offer are extracted by a gentle cold press. They stand out due to their very high percentage of natural linoleic acids, which accelerate the drying properties. These are pure food safe natural products without any chemical additives. Properties As curing oil linseed oil has ever been the basis of most of the varnishes and wood protection oils. Linseed oil emphasises the grain, protects against moisture and dirt, is easy to use and highly environmental friendly. In the long term an intensification and darkening is to be expected. The surface is hardened by the bonding of Linoxyn and it will become mechanically robust.
Maple surface Left: untreated surface (cleaned with a plane). Centered: treated with Swedish Linseed Oil. Right: treated with Alkanna toned Swedish Linseed Oil
Ra Linolja Since it takes quite long for the raw Linseed Oil to dry (1 4 weeks) it deeply penetrates into the wood surface. 4
Linolja Once the Linolja has been cold-pressed it is exposed to the sun and thus bleached and preoxidized. Therefore it is very transparent and dries much quicker than raw Linseed oil. (Drying time according to environmental conditions and surface one to several days). Use We recommend the Linseed oil surface especially for interiors: furniture with slight and medium exposure, wooden parts with body contact (kitchen, cutting board, handles, toys, musical instruments) and in sensitive areas (childrens room, bedroom, sauna etc.). Any mixtures with other vegetable oils (with wax or rosin) is possible. But usually the Linseed oil is heated in order to improve the solubility.
Bowl by Wille Sundqvist, Nordic Masur Birch, soaked with Linseed Oil and polished.
Application The application of the Linseed Oil should be done across the grain using brushes or cloths, it should be polished along the grain. Add-on of scented oils To create a pleasant smell 5-10% of Orange oil can be added. Deep impregnation Small objects with high exposure (e.g. handles or wooden spoons) can be deeply impregnated by completely soaking the object for several days into Linseed Oil. 5
Example for high-quality Linseed Oil layer coating Polish the surface (grind 180 240), wet with water, let it dry and repolish it with a grind of 240 330. First application: heat the Linseed Oil slowly up to 55C (if possible in water bath) or thin with 20% Balsam oil of turpentine. Let it soak in for 1 hour and wipe it off. Intermediate sanding after drying (about 1 day) with 320 emery cloth. Second till fourth application without thinning and intermediate sanding. After several weeks of drying polish with a lint-free cotton cloth. Polish about 2 times per year with beeswax. Linseed Oil Egg Tempera Whisking the water-insoluble Linseed oil with egg it will be solubilised to a water-soluble tempera. This painting media, which was already famous with renaissance painters, is excellently suitable to make colours (by adding pigments), that feature ageing resistance and wipe resistance. Recipe suggestion (according to Wille Sundqvist): Linseed oil/egg = 1/1 whisk, add one to two parts water, in order to improve the durability add about 2 -5 % balsam oil of turpentine & pigments according to requirements. Consume shortly or store in the refrigerator.
Tung-Nuts
Having oiled the surface the grain will be very much emphasised, above all the contrast between grain-cut and cross-cut timber. The picture shows an ash table top with cones by Charles Beresford, shellac base coat and two layers of balsam oil of turpentine mixed with 10% orange oil.
Use Lignea is suitable to protect wood indoors and outdoors, e.g. for furniture, garden furniture, fences, rust, timbering, espalier, flooring, turned pieces, musical instruments, wooden toys and wooden boats. 8
It can also be used for the protection of cloths and even brickwork (thanks to a complete coat of Tung oil the Chinese Wall has been so well preserved). A thin coat of Tung oil has also proven as anti-corrosion varnish for metals, e.g. low carbon steel, bronze or brazen parts. Lignea is easy to apply even in several layers with a brush to cloth. It can be thinned with balsam oil of turpentine or be mixed with other vegetable oils according to the users preference. Example of use Ornamental wood (Turnery, carving, wooden jewellery) Tung oil /Camellia oil / Orange oil = 10/1 /0,5 Good penetration, very well polishable and protection against dirt. Outdoors (Wooden decks, fences, garden furniture etc) First layer: Tung oil, Balsam oil of turpentine = 10/1, intermediate grinding. Further two to four layers: pure Tung oil, undiluted. Very good weather protection. Indoors (Floring, stairs, furniture etc) First layer: Tung oil, Balsam oil of turpentine = 10/1, intermediate grinding. One to three further layers: Tung oil/ Linseed oil / Orange oil = 10/2/0,5 or Tung oil/ Beeswax / Balsam oil of turpentine = 10/0.5/1 (first dissolve the Beeswax in Balsam oil of turpentine) or Tung oil/Orange oil = 10/1 very fine and odorant surfaces with very good abrasion and dirt protection.
Tung oil as grain filler Pure Tung oil can also be used as grain filler. Apply a thick layer and let it soak in without wiping off the excess. Let it dry until it has become viscous. Now rub in the thickening oil with a cloth and take wipe off the excess. Having dried the procedure can be repeated up to five times depending on the necessary density and transparency. Drying time Lignea is not pre-oxidised and due to ecological reasons not mixed with chemical drying accelerators (siccatives). Therefore a longer drying time is to be expected (1/2 day up to several days). The drying time depends on the environmental conditions, type of wood and pre-treated surface. In case of treating medium density fibreboards or similar materials the drying time might be prolonged due to the deep penetration of the oil (and missing contact with oxygen). Pure Tung oil is quite viscous, the penetration behaviour can be improved by thinning or heating it. We recommend to thin the oil with Balsam oil of turpentine (10% - 50%) when applying it for the first time. Do not apply the Lignea Tung oil in the blazing sun and wipe off any excess maximum hour after application. Do not apply the Lignea Tung oil to wet wood (maximum 15 % wood moisture). The pure and liquid Lignea Tung oil has a nutty odor, which wears off after having dried or if it has been mixed with Orange oil or Balsam oil of turpentine. We do not recommend the Tung Oil for compact furniture like drawers or the inside of closet. In liquid state (during treatment) Tung Oi may cause irritations or allergical reactions when getting in contact with the skin. We recommend to wear protection gloves. Once it has completely dried the oil film is chemically stable and free from harmfull emissions.

Poppy-seed oil
Derivation This oil which is extracted from the seeds of the white poppy flower (Papaver somniferum), was ever since the most important natural binder for high quality paint oils and artists colours. Properties Poppy-seed oil belongs to the drying oils. But drying times are very long (up to two weeks per application), the final hardness is less than that of Linseed oil. The main advantage compared to other vegetable oils is, it does not yellow. Multiple coats of poppyseed oil yield a warm, silky gloss and a surface which is pleasant to the touch. Poppyseed oil is food save and can be mixed with other natural oils and paint thinners. Application Thanks to its high transparency poppy-seed oil is the basis for violin varnish and other clear wood protection varnish. It protects against moisture and dirt and tightens the wood surface due to its deep penetration. We recommend it for handcrafted items, turned objects, toys and kitchen utensils. Because of it` s good grip on surfaces it is suitable for kitchen knife and tool handles. In combination with pigments it can be used to make colour oils and artists colours. 1 liter bottle No. 705272 5 liter bottle No. 705268 Squirrel hair brush For applying shellac, fine oil varnishes and water colours.

Lubrication Since Sinsensis does not harden and features little surface tension it is very well suited as lubricant of small joints and mechanic parts, e.g. sawing machines, folding knives, toys, fishing reels as well as tools. Body care Camellia oil makes an excellent base for the preparation of lotions, creams and soaps. Used as massage oil it makes the skin smooth. Japanese Geishas have always used it as hair oil. The traditional Chinese medicine grants it to have numerous homeopathic effect.

Orange Oil
Derivation Orange oil is extracted as pure oil without any chemicals additives from the peel of the sweet orange (Citrus Sinsensis). Properties Due to its intensive and refreshing scent it is used in aromatherapy, as additive in scented oils, bathing oils, creams and soaps. Due to its strongly fat-dissolving properties it is a very effective and ecological cleaning and caring product for wooden and plastic surfaces. It is also suited as dissolver and thinner for oil paints and as paint brush cleanser. It can be mixed with any vegetable oils, e.g. Camellia Oil, Linseed Oil or Tung Oil, to which it lends a pleasant and vitalising scent. Recommended use We recommend to add 5-20% of Orange Oil to Tung Oil if used inside to ease the strong scent. Besides the Tung oil becomes thinner and thus can be better applied and penetrates deeper into the wood. In combination with carnauba wax or beeswax it can make a variety of agents for cleaning and caring for wooden surfaces and leather. Notice Orange oil may cause light-coloured wood or untreated wood surfaces to discolour. The high citrus acid content found in pure orange oil may irritate the skin and mucous membranes. 250 ml glass bottle No. 705277 1 liter storage bottle No. 705278

The composition of the shellac surface consists of the following steps: Basic polishing: porefiller with shellac and pumice powder. Cover polishing: the layer structure is to be achieved in several rounds with intermediate drying until a compact surface has been achieved (approx. 2 6 layers, depending on the wood and pretreatment). Polishing: mix the shine polishing with a light solution, possibly with benzoin rosin or benzoin paint. The exact procedure would be too detailed for this brochure. It can be best thought in one of our workshops (please see our brochure). French polishing is also very well suited to be used as base coat for oily or wax surfaces. It hardens the wooden surface and prevents it from volatilising. The shellac solution cannot be mixed with other oils. Therefore the shellac base has to dry well before the oil is applied.

Propolis 100 g No. 810012 Derivation Propolis is a rosin which is secreted by the gland of honey bees in order to glue combs. Properties The resinous cement collected by bees to stop up crevasses in their hives has been used by humankind since ancient times both as a natural medicine (for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral effect) and as an ingredient in fine wood varnishes and oils. None other than Stradivarius used propolis to improve the flexibility, durability and visual appearance of his varnishes. Propolis also has a very pleasant aroma, attributable to the pine and poplar resin it contains, which makes it an excellent way of enriching any homemade finish. Application In addition, its natural antibacterial and antifungal effect makes propolis, in combination with a food safe oil (e.g. our Swedish linseed oil) the perfect choice for treating wooden household objects which come in frequent contact with the skin, such as kitchen utensils, cutting boards, sauna and bathroom furniture and childrens toys. Pure Propolis Varnish Mix 300 - 400 g of propolis with 1 liter of high percentage ethyl alcohol (spirit alcohol 98% or stronger). Let the mixture steep for 8 - 14 days, shake several times a day. Pour the dissolved solution (without dregs) off and filter it (e.g. using a doubled nylon stocking). The resulting pure propolis varnish can be applied directly to wooden surfaces. It hardens relatively slowly and yields a yellowish brown color. Tincture This pure propolis-alcohol solution, once mixed with 70% water, has proven to be an effective tincture for medicinal use (to treat wounds and as a disinfectant, pain reliever and immune system booster).

Marple-surface Left: untreated (finished by plane). Right: varnished with Propolis-Linseed Oil varnish
Propolis-Linseed Oil Varnish Ratio by weight of linseed oil / beeswax / propolis = 8 / 2,5 / 4. This recipe yields a high quality, pleasant-smelling and ecologically friendly varnish for wooden objects which come in frequent contact with skin, e.g. childrens toys, bathroom and sauna furniture, kitchen utensils, wooden spoons, etc. We recommend using a linseed oil which is free of chemicals, such as our Linolja oil (No. 705275). To make the varnish, first warm the linseed oil to ca. 60 - 70 C and dissolve the propolis in the oil. Next, filter the solution and mix the beeswax into the warm solution. To improve the varnishs resistance to water, 10 - 50% Chinese tung oil (Lignea, No. 705286) may be used. The hardness of the varnish can also be increased by replacing some of the beeswax with the harder Carnauba wax (No. 810009). Russian Varnish Ratio by weight of linseed oil / beeswax / propolis = 4 / 1 / 2. A variation of the varnish described above which displays a higher degree of hardness, primarily used for restoring antiques or objects subject to heavy wear. Directions as above. Hardening Addition of resins such as mastic, sandarac or shellac will increase the hardness of the varnish coat and make applying the varnish easier. De-Waxing The wax dissolved in the propolis-alcohol solution can be removed if a finish with a higher degree of hardness is desired. Simply cool the solution until the wax solidifies at the surface are remove it from the solution. Hardening Addition of resins such as mastic, sandarac or shellac will increase the hardness of the varnish coat and make applying the varnish easier.
25
Beeswax
The secretions of the glands found on the abdomen of the bee, known commonly as beeswax, have been used since ancient times for gluing, polishing and preserving wood. Research has shown that the planks which made up the hulls of Punic warships were treated with pure beeswax almost 2000 years ago to protect them from the corrosive effects of saltwater. When slightly heated (max. 70 C) and in its pure form, beeswax can be used to penetrate and treat many types of wooden surfaces. Beeswax can be mixed with oil, alcohol or turpentine to produce a variety of polishing and cleaning pastes and liquids. A well-proven finish consists of a primer coat of linseed oil and single or multiple coats of a 1 / 3 mixture of linseed oil, turpentine and beeswax. Surfaces treated in this manner have a beautiful, satiny appearance, are relatively resistant to wear and can easily be retouched and refinished. Apply the wax solution in a thin coat and polish immediately, across the grain. 500 g No. 810006 1000 g No. 810007
Paraffin wax
Extracted from mineral oil, paraffin wax is colourless, solvent-free, and water-repelling. It is used for sealing end grain, in wood turning, for mixing with beeswax, as a preservative for wood and metal, and for lubricating moving parts (e.g. plane soles, thread box). 1000 g No. 810016
Carnauba wax
The leaves of the carnauba palm native to Brazil secrete a greyish-yellowish protective wax known for its hardness and excellent physiological properties. This carnauba wax is often used in cosmetic products and can be used to add hardness to beeswax polishes, improving their resistance to wear and glossiness. Carnauba wax is also well-suited for lubricating moving wooden parts and protecting metal 26
parts from corrosion (similar to beeswax). The wax offered here is unbleached and has a melting point of approximately 90 C. A recommended wax polishing paste: carnauba wax / beeswax / turpentine: 1 / 2 / 2. 500 g No. 810009 1000 g No. 810010

Natural dyes
Alkanna root
Derivation The alkanet root has long been used to produce red to reddish-violet alkannin dyes. The granulate offered here is obtained from the lower bark and root of a borage-like plant (alkanna tinktura) native to Europe. Properties The dying agent present in alkanet root dissolves well in oil or alcohol and bonds well to organic materials, such as silk, cotton, leather, wood, skin and hair. For this reason, it is particularly suited for colouring wood oils and oil varnishes. Use The dying agent is going to be extracted by preparing a dissolution of the chips in ethyl alcohol (10g 20g per 100g alcohol), constantly stirring and finally filtrating. This concentrated dissolution can be added to the oil as needed. Another method is the direct boiling of the root granule in linseed oil. Put the chips into a linen bag and then into the linseed oil, max. heated up to 80C. The intensity of the 28
dying depends on the duration, temperature and stirring. The extracted coloured oil accentuates the woods natural beauty of all bright wood and prevents it from becoming yellowish, which is a typical side effect of linseed oil (formula according to Mr councillor of commerce Hartl, conservator in Laxenburg, Vienna). 100 g No. 810024
Dragons blood
Dragon's blood resin is obtained from the fruit of the Asian Daemonorops draco tree. Dissolvable in spirits or water, it delivers a striking blood-red stain that can be used to color violin varnishes, oil varnish or watercolors, as some examples. It can also be used in its pure form. 50 g No. 810021
Benzoin
Derivation The pure benzoin tears ('almonds') offered here are harvested from Styrax trees in Siam. Incisions made in the tree's bark cause sap to exude, which hardens upon exposure to air. Properties Benzoin is a mid-strength fragrant resin. Due to its pleasant, vanilla-like aroma, it is a favoured ingredient in perfumes (Chanel No. 5), aromatic oils, ointments and incense. Due to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effect it is also used in naturopathy. Use To produce the lacquer a lotion is made by dissolving the benzoin in ethyl alcohol (40g benzoin per 100g alcohol). This lotion is going to be added after filtration to vegetable oils. It improves the brushability and gives the oil a pleasant scent. When worked into a varnish, benzoin creates a glossy finish for shellac surfaces or high-quality oil-varnished surfaces. 100 g No. 810023 29
